NCC Regulations
If you are unsure of what the NCC regulations mean for you, visit our regulations page to learn more. NCC regulations set out minimum safety requirements by considering wire sizes, wire spacing and post spacing. You are required to comply with the NCC regulations if the height of your platform is greater than 1000mm and less than 4000mm. If the height of your platform is 4000mm or greater you cannot use the balustrade builder, please contact Miami Stainless by visiting our contact page.
Length of Each Section
The length of section is the distance between the start and stop posts, see below infographic. The start and stop point, or terminations, are generally between post measurements.
Note: Tensioner Swage Stud System requires measurements between outside of posts.
